Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

As a fan of the Fall of Cybertron game and series, I like the FOC version, but in your opinion, which do you guys and/or gals prefer? I do not own the previous version so I cannot say for sure but judging by pictures my vote goes to the newer version, big guns, cybertronian jet mode, and such. Now if they would release some retooled versions of this mold into thundercracker and skywarp.

Motto:"If you don't believe me, just ask me.....I'll tell you all about it."

I'd say go with what fits in your collection needs. I have only a few FOC characters and FOC Starscream doesn't interest me. I do own the other Classics one however as that is one of 2 groups I collect. However if it interests you....then perhaps get both?

I can't STAND the Classics mold. In jet mode, it's really quite nice, but the robot mode is frustrating to pose. Now, I have the Classics (2006) version, not the much improved Universe 2.0 (2008) version, so the eyes are all but invisible from any angle but straight on.

But coming back to my main frustration...it's painful to pose it; it just wont' stand up, the jet thruster heels are awful! For those of you who don't own the mold, they're rounded, like the MP version. Unlike the MP version, they aren't on a ball joint and therefore can't be swiveled to compensate for any leg position other than standing straight. Plus they have ratchet-y movement...at 45 degree intervals... I'm looking forward to picking up FoC Starscream to replace the one sitting on my shelf.

I think I'll start with the foc one, as I'll probably find it cheaper at the moment anyways. Maybe even at retail, but later I'll up to the Generations 2.0 version. I have the Galvatron figure form the same series and to me it matches the FOC stuff extremely well, in robot mode anyways.

Classics Starscream for me every time, maybe it's because it's the first Classics figure I bought and therefore reignited my collecting spirit, but I really do love the mould, so much so that I bought his two brothers, breaking my no repeat moulds rule of collecting.
